Alright guys, after much deliberation we finally picked a winner from among the PILES (really not that many) of submissions we got to the Persona 4 giveaway. We judged originality, skill and entertainment value, it was a close call but in the end one emerged victorious.
Persona 3 was a game that had a very distinctive and attractive stylistic sensibility to it, and Persona 4 is no different, giving us a brand new gang of beautiful hipsters to crawl through some dungeons with. In celebration of the game’s release, Japanese manufacturer Cospa is putting out this beautiful track jacket based on the same one the main character wears.
And now for the bad news: it costs about $90 US and so far there’s no known way to get this thing shipped to the US. I could definitely see myself wearing this, and may have to go to some ridiculous lengths to secure one. In the meantime I’ll just have to be content with my daydreams and QQ.

Since Persona 4 hit Japanese stores today it’s only natural that videos would start appearing on Youtube! This video shows the first 18 minutes of the game, starting from the intro (That has admittedly been growing on me lately), and going up until the first opportunity to save. No combat, but Igor appears and has somehow managed to get enough money to buy himself a nice set of wheels. Likely from his swindling of those Persona cards…
All that’s left to do is wait, or get your hands on a copy if you can read it.
